Reviewer: Jara
Decent story, great research footnotes.
The writing and storytelling were pretty good. The authors leveraged a great deal of research to present an interesting speculation on how the technical aspects of the next great power war could go. It presents some very interesting points for security and defense professionals to consider.
Reviewer: W. E.
Spot on and referenced.
Singer and Cole understand how the stars will align as it relates to the Dollar, Yuan, India, China, and other major participants of a very probable future-cast. The e:book has been referenced so you can gleam greater understanding as to why, how, and what the authors are thinking when they posit a premise about the near future. I consider this book a must read for those who want to think about the future of the world and America.
Reviewer: Markmnk
One take on a future war with China.
Ghost Fleet is written to explore the new technology and tactics around a future war between the US and China. The book largely skips over why the war starts and concentrates on the tactics, technology and weapons used by both sides. If you want to know about the vulnerabilities of western societies to modern warfare this is the book for you. It is a fast paced account and written in small chapters. It is extremely referenced to allow the reader to explore the technologies that exist today. I thoroughly enjoyed it.

Hate to be a Hater.
Ghost Fleet is basically the opposite of a Tom Clancy novel. In Clancy's work, the good guys always win and no piece of critical equipment ever seems to break and things always work as advertised. In Singer's world, NOTHING ever works, the good guys are only allowed temporary or pyrrhic victories, and all the characters' development somehow makes all of them even more off-putting. This book is the equivalent of viewing a preachy cautionary tale through the framework of the movie Battleship starring Rihanna.
And then there is the strange manner in which one of the storylines seems more like an outlet for a weird sexual fetish instead of a relevant arc to develop the plot. Those of you who read this will understand what I mean.
That being said, if you can appreciate Michael Bay movies for being pure spectacle, and don't mind a fire and brimstone and damnation approach to analyzing the future of technology and politics, it is a pretty entertaining book. No one is going to be forcing kids to read this in school someday, though. I hate to be a hater, overall I enjoyed this book. I guess I was just disappointed I didn't enjoy it more.
Reviewer: Peter Van Buren
Like the mediocre stuff Clancy was putting out after he made it big...
Meh. This reads like the mediocre stuff Clancy was putting out after he made it big. Details are fudged with "new technology" covering plot/logic gaps. There is essentially no characterization. All Americans are loyal, tough, good, smart and self-sacrificing. The bad guys (Chinese) are all sadistic and evil. The limited backstory for a main character is a cardboard father-son conflict. The old ways are the best ways-- if only the entire military were run by retired Navy Chiefs! Even the war scenes are, well, dull. There are some interesting observations on an over-reliance on technology, but in the end it devolves to those same miracle hackers you see in every techno-story that can do anything and break into any system with a series of keystrokes. Sorry, I was bored by the end.
Reviewer: Kent Lundgren
The author's presentation is not terribly polished, but neither does it bring on somnolence.
Stunningly adequate entertainment. The concept is interesting and too plausible for comfort in these times: China sets itself up to take advantage of the weakness of the U.S. defense establishment following period of American retrenchment. They do it well, leaving the U.S. stumbling about, as in post-Pearl Harbor moments. To say more would betray the plot, but it is worrisome to those who think about such things. The author's presentation is not terribly polished, but neither does it bring on somnolence.

Disappointment.
95% of this book is at least 5 stars, without question, but the last 5% leaves the reader with very little closure. So much time devoted to developing characters & their story, then almost nothing about them in the end. Especially true in not telling anything about what happened to the military of both the Russian & Chinese forces. Did the U.S. Retaliate further, and how. Way too many loose ends left dangling for me, & I was greatly disappointed. I would not recommend this book to anyone because of its poorly constructed ending.
Reviewer: The Trader
Moderately Okay.
A good read for the summer, basically a "read & forget" kind of novel. Despite the claims, absolutely nowhere near the status of an early Tom Clancy novel. Some interesting tech, and some repetitive and un-necessary garbage (I.e. all the "stims" - I mean Why was that needed? What did that possibly add to the story?). All in all, I wouldn't be in any hurry to read anything else from these guys.
Reviewer: J.S. Bach Fan
Very Interesting and Kept Me Reading.
A very interesting book. Very well researched - the evidence being in the back of the book. There are a lot of characters. I had to take notes to keep track of all the characters. But it was worth it. A character may appear on page 20 and not reappear until page 100, but the plot development is such that it is always interesting to see what happens to this character.
A lot of research, and intertwined plots make this book very scary, very real, and very well written.
Reviewer: EclecticDC
An Intriguing and Fast Paced Read.
Like a Tom Clancy novel, this book is much stronger on plot and technical details than character development, writing or dialogue. I still give it five stars because it's a deeply thought-provoking, game changing look at technology, international politics and war as Red Storm Rising was in the day. The painstaking research and extra effort given to provide references for every tech detail is impressive. The book is such a tightly woven read that it's truly a page-turner. I missed several metro stops because I was so engrossed in the book!
Reviewer: Doug Toppin
Interesting view of dependence on technology.
Satisfied with the book and I recommend it if you are interested in defense technology. It portrays a dependence on technology, particularly layers of it, as well as on the risk of foreign manufacturing and how detecting malicious software may be challenging in large systems. A lot of action mid way through the end of the book.
Reviewer: Kelley
Great Read.
Recommended by friends, I bought this book for some relaxing reading. Turns out I was completely captivated by the blending of current technology, politics, and world militaries. Highly recommend for a great read.
Reviewer: Scho
Highly Recommended.
Great page turner! Reminds me of when I used to read Tom Clancy Books as a kid. I couldn't put it down. The craziest thing about the book is that all of the technology is allegedly already in use. The book gives you a pretty good snapshot of where military and commercial technology is going in the coming years. I would highly recommend.
Reviewer: MisterJDF
A fun ride, and frighteningly believable.
Ghost Fleet is well-placed and exciting, with a little time taken for character development. This plot-driven page-turner is compelling because the initial conditions leading to war are easy to believe and relatable from the state of the world today. This is a book that will stick with me in the near future, coloring how I read the headlines: "Uh oh, I think I know where this is leading..."
It's also sobering in its assessment of some of the current weaknesses in Western security and military preparedness. The role of hubris in politics and war is well-explored, if a bit one-sided. Lastly, the authors bring a credible sense of the likely interaction and balance of power between the military and the private sector.
All in all, a really engaging read!
Reviewer: Amazon Customer
A must read.
As must read for anyone in Cyber, Space, the military, or business... fast-paced, easy read and enjoyable, pretty good story line and characters. I couldn't put the book down.
Reviewer: Eddie O
This is a novel with endnotes.
The basic plot is a naval war (in the indeterminate future) in the Western Pacific between the United States and China. This plot is a framework for the authors' disclosure of the perils of high technology warfare. Can China implant chips and software with killer worms? Can the US Navy survive in combat without state of the art technology?
This novel does not answer questions, but it asks important questions.
Reviewer: Mark White
This book is o.k., but lacks the "can't put it down" writing I got from some others.
WW3 or future war fiction is a topic I look for having grown up with Tom Clancy and others. This book is o.k., but lacks the "can't put it down" writing I got from some others. Many good ideas though, and held my interest.
Reviewer: Donald E. Thornwald
Don't know what a head line is.
Nothing to dislike. Book arrived in good condition in about one week.
Story line is quite believable. Rather scary too as what could happen if this country lets its guard down.
Reviewer: Kindle Customer
Military professionals need to read this.
I was amazed at this description of the electronic battlefield and potential impact on operations. A great primer for thought considering new realities of electronic spectrum warfare. Added bonus of character development and interaction to keep the story flowing and entertaining. A suggested read for current military professionals that will have to face kinetic and non kinetic threat on the future battlefields.
